It's really hard to get over the childhood wound of "no one believes me or listens to me so I can't trust anyone or go to anyone for support and therefore have to handle everything myself" when that shit is still happening to me as an adult in my 30s lol

#'heal the wounds your inner child is still nursing' doc my outer adult is still being wounded this way lol #personal #like every time i go to my manager and say im fed up of being mistreated and clients being rude #she gets this condescending motherly tone like 'no theyre not being rude theyre just frustrated' as if it cant be both #and then my spouse telling me he's fed up of hearing me say im exhausted and that i dread work #like im not even looking for advice or deep support i just want to sigh and say im exhausted sometimes bc i sleep badly #i cant do a damn thing about it i just want to say it to someone i think cares about me....#and the worst was when i made a joke about autistic habits and he went 'come on youre not autistic stop it'#as if i dont have a formal adhd diagnosis and enough traits of autism to self dx with it and its frequently comorbid w adhd #and my talking about it to my mom has led to her pushing my 75 year old dad to be assessed too #like it was a light bulb moment for her
